Cost

Cost is recalculated in the spring each year - if there are any changes to the tuition we will let you know. The numbers below are based on last years tuition.

Elementary corps members: $15,580

Middle School/Secondary corps members: $11,780

If you attend CCSJ you will be prompted to complete the FAFSA to cover the upfront tuition costs and then release your AmeriCorps awards in Summer 2017 and Summer 2018 to re-pay the FAFSA. Whereas Corps Members in Illinois will have out-of-pocket expenses, the cost of CCSJ's program matches the AmeriCorps award and there should be little, to no, out of pocket cost assumed on your behalf.*

Application Process

November-June: Read about CCSJ on the hub, ask the Onboarding team questions (no direct action)

June: During Summer Training you will have an orientation with CCSJ. during that session you will learn how to "apply" to the program and next steps to get ready for the fall (this will include submitting official transcripts, completing a CPR/First Aid training and a short essay). There will be an application fee of $25.00.

What happens if you are hired in Northwest Indiana after already applying to Relay?

If you are hired in Northwest Indiana during summer training we will work with you to refund costs you incurred preparing to teach in Illinois (testing and application fee's). We will also set you up to register for CCSJ.
